Re: Older Barnes & Mullins Flatback - missing tuner key
It looks like a ring/spacer was placed over the axle and then the axle was riveted. Maybe you can press the ring further down and then file off the riveting. The new button could be fixed with superglue and the ring as well.
A new button can be aged/patinised with f.x. coffee, stain or dye. Find a button made of bone, like the originals.
